Visitors From the North |
Description: |
Two RDC-9s from the Boston area are seen in storage on an old freight siding. The B&M was the only railroad that this model of RDC was built for, using it for their extensive Boston area commuter service. For these two to sit out in the open like this without a scratch is amazing as this town has given the CMSL problems in the past. |

Looking north on the Cape May branch towards Tuckahoe and Winslow Junction. The siding track on the right had, for many years, a line of stored PRR and PRSL coaches. Recently everything has been either moved north to Tuckahoe or scrapped on site. The Wildwood Junction station and wye are out of sight in the trees on the right. |
